What is a sprig and why is it called for?
Posted by valmg under Food
In recipes, a sprig usually refers to a 2 to 4 inch piece of an herb plant. Before substituting with a dried version of the same herb check your recipe. Often a spring is called for because at some point the recipe calls for the spring to be removed. Springs can be removed but dried herbs cannot so the end results might taste stronger than intended.
